May Honorable Mentions

May 15, 2008      Nichole Heady      14 Comments

Have you seen this month’s Guest Star Stamper Winners yet?  They were amazing!  I am always in awe of how much talent is floating around out there!!!

Best Father’s Day
card was awarded to buszby!  I loved how she used score lines to create a diagonal grid and filled in the centers with the compass rose image from Father Knows Best.  I also loved the color scheme and all the small simple details she added to make the project perfectly balanced!

Best Boy Birthday Card was awarded to Kimberly Crawford.   She created the most unique background paper by using a sentiment from Ponf Life and one of the circular stamps from Father Knows Best.  It is such a great card that you could easily mass produce. 

Best Use of Garden of Life goes to Bridget Dickinson,  She made some of the most gorgeous patterned paper which features such a clever use of Garden of Life.  As soon as you see it, you’re going to want to pull out that set and try the pattern yourself!!!

As always, there are MANY other submissions that I feel are noteworthy!  I thought I would take a few moments to mention a few of the others!

Wiggydl
Wiggydl (Donelda) created this simple masculine card that is so appropriate for Father’s Day!  I love the variegated sunset background she created using a brayer.  The cattails just really set everything off!

…………………………………………………………………………..
Alisha_trussell
Alisha Trussell
used the swirl flower from Garden of Life to make cinnamon rolls on her Mother’s Day card this year.  I love how she stamped one layer in brown and the second layer in white embossing powder to look like frosting!

…………………………………………………………………………….
Charmaine_ikach_garden_of_life
Charmaine Ikach
created this lovely place setting for Mother’s Day.  I love how the daisy extends above the fold on her place cars.  The umber glitter in the flower centers is SO pretty too!

………………………………………………………………………….
Debpkim_2
DebPKim created this bright & colorful boy’s birthday card using Pond Life.  I loved how she picked up the colors of her patterned paper with the fish colors.  Perfect boy color scheme!

……………………………………………………………………..
Jak
Jak Heath
created this unique Father’s Day card using Father Knows Best & Garden of Life.  She added hints of gold sparkle to several elements of the tree and outlined the leaves in her backgorund.  I love how she also added berries to the tree to add a pop of color!

………………………………………………………………….
Jennifer_kirk
Jennifer Kirk
put her folding skills to the test with these special Father’s Day shirt cards.  All of the details she added, like the ribbon in place of the tie, make these projects unforgettable and SO adorable!

……………………………………………………………………..
Jillsgram
Jillsgram (Val) made this gorgeous Father’s Day card using different elements from Father Knows Best.  This is such a unique card layout and I love the color scheme.  An EXCELLENT example of how great masculine card design can be!

…………………………………………………………………….
Joannacraftykid
JoAnna Rivera
is a very young crafter, but I was very impressed with her creativity in changing the Father Knows Best sentiment to suit her needs.  The contrast of fonts is just fabulous!  I think that this girl is definitely going places!

………………………………………………………………………
Julie_ann_wells_pond_life_2
Julie-Ann Wells
made this cute little boy birthday card using Pond Life.  I love how she used the turtle shell image from the set as a rock.  This distressed cardstock & frayed ribbon are really nice complimentary details as well.

…………………………………………………………………….
Julie_cameron
Julie Cameron
created this amazing Father’s Day Card.  I love the way she used subtle masking to create the "waves" at the top of the project.  Such a nice detail! 

…………………………………………………………………………
Kristyscraps_pond_life_2
  Kristyscraps made this super simple & adorable gift ensemble for a boy.  I love how the green and kraft compliment each other so well.  And stamping on tissue paper!  So cute!

…………………………………………………………………
Tylersmum05
This card by tylersmum05 (Molly B) is EXACTLY what I am going to create for my dad for Father’s Day.  It is so "him".  From the leather cord tied around the spine to the simple cattails.  I just think this is simplicity at it’s best!

……………………………………………………………………….
So there are all the honorable mentions!  There are DOZENS of other intriguing entries in the May GSS Submissions folder in out gallery.  Be sure to stop over and take a peek!

Are you interested in entering this month’s contest?  We are looking for entires that fall into one of three different categories…
Best Baby Gift
Best Use of Mailbox Greetings
Best Use of Honey Bees

You can read all the details HERE!  Please remember when uploading to include your full name and blog link if you would like them included in your possible honorable mention post!  I look forward to seeing all your submissions!
